Go raibh maith agat (thank you)

Answer 1

my dad went to Ireland and he said that the grass was really green and that it rained alot. so those are kind of my expectations too.

Answer 2

I'm Irish and I really love Ireland!

Answer 3

I haven't been so please correct me...

I assume Ireland is full of beautiful women and sightly landscapes.  The men are a bunch of drunken louts who will punch the first tourist they see (sorry but this reputation is more from being bunched in with England I'll bet).  People like to dance and drink ales at the pub.

Answer 4

I haven't yet been to Ireland, but I REALLY want to go in my lifetime. For me, it would have to be the scenery. Beautiful!

Answer 5

Beer, lots of it.

Answer 7

Heavy drinkers, starch eaters

Answer 8

Answer 9

I love Ireland.
